Pins and Needles Lyrics

the future's promise holds so great
on pins and needles now we wait until the daylight
is this the first time we've ever seen
a moment's gaze into a dream?
it's a long way down
we've come so far so fast
if I fall will I be found?

I dreamed of water and of wine
across the plains I'm drawn to ever-nearing movement
my throat is parched, my back is burned
on pins and needles the world now turns

is this all there is?
can nothing else be seen?
in my sleep will still I dream?

time slips by through my aching fingers
i try to reclaim it in my hands
try to bring it closer only to forgive
and bring it back around, slow it down
where inside is your waiting answer?
in your spirit or in your heart?
cast over your burden, the chains of your fear
and come what may
through all the waiting night

I dreamed of water and of wine
of demons and divine and of the in between
so let it stand to reason, let it stand for everything
before I lose myself this time

the twilight calls us move forward now
across the desert sands
from the top of the mountains to the desert floor below
smell the madness here, free the magic here
I dreamed of water and of wine
and endless days of light and sand and everyman
frozen in time in this wilderness of freedom
in this dream will it be mine?

(instrumental section - maybe I'll write one versish thing here in the 5/4 rock section)

I dreamed of running, running blind
of countenance denied in all the earthly pleasure
so let it stand to reason, the agony and ecstasy
before I lose myself this time

I dreamed of water and of wine
of demons and divine and of the in between
is this the last time I'll ever have this dream
before I lose myself again?
